Joushuu Higashikata is a character from Part VIII: Jojolion.

Synopsis

Joushuu Higashikata is a childhood friend of Yasuho Hirose. When Yasuho rescues the mysterious naked sailor from under the rubble at the Wall Eyes, he immediately misunderstands the situation and tries to attack the man with a rock out of jealousy. He's quickly taken out by the man, who uses his stand ability to "vanish" Joushuu's eyes.

He is later seen at the hospital, having received the same bite marks on his leg that the sailor had, implying that he too had received a stand ability.

It is discovered that he's part of the rich Higashikata family that stemmed from Norisuke Higashikata, a horse racer from the Steel Ball Run. He does not have much respect for the protagonist, however, and has shown restraint against his father, only yielding to his father's wishes when bribed with money.

Trivia

• He may be the first JoJo who can be classified as a villain of the arc, if the "shuu" in his name could be pronounced as "jo".
• Ironically, as noted by Yasuho, Joushuu applied for the Sociology department in his college, despite his complete lack of social skills whatsoever.
